Forget the Spritz Bottle: Check Out These Cool New Perfumes

I love a good perfume, but the spray-thing is rough on me during the winter. Scents either feel like overkill (I swear they stick more on dry skin), get buried under the cozy layers or disappear by the end of the day -- which is when you really want to wear it anyway. I mean, who wants to be perfume-overload at 8 AM?

Anyway, whether you're neurotic about fragrance in the winter like me, need a good gift for a keen nose or just want a fun new way to rock a signature scent, these three new ways to wear perfume are perfect for wintertime festivities -- and beyond.

1. Each Lisa Hoffman Perfume Bracelet — from her Fragrance Jewelry collection — is a beaded, hippie-style strand that comes with a gold charm filled with perfume beads.. I’m in love with the warm Tuscan Fig (an amber brown bracelet that has similar scent notes), but could totally see myself stacking several of them to create my own signature scent. You need to refill the charm weekly, but it’s way easier than spraying (multiple times) daily, right?

2. The Peacock Perfumerie Pendant Necklace might be the chicest thing I’ve ever laid eyes on. Maybe. The vintage-inspired pendant, which comes in four gorgeous shades, is a crystal tear-drop on a gold chain that kind of reminds me of those badass poison necklaces you see in old movies. Unscrew the top, drop in your favorite perfume oil (Allure, mine, is vanilla-y and exotic) and screw the top back on. Toss it around your neck and dab on when you need to feel extra fab.

3. OK, so maybe the Mark Get Some Scents Solid Fragrance Pencil isn’t jewelry like these other two, but I swear it’s the best way to travel with fragrance ever — even if you’re just traveling down the block for happy hour. The super-affordable ($20) set comes with four different pencils to match any mood, so you’re never stashing multiple bottles of perfume (and setting yourself up for bag-leak disasters). Plus, they are subtle enough that you can scribble it onto your wrists when your crush walks into the room without looking like you give a crap.
